The Spring issue of frieze d/e marks Gerhard Richter’s exhibition ‘Panorama’ at Berlin’s Neue Nationalgalerie, by speaking to Hal Foster. The Professor of Art and Archaeology at Princeton University discusses Richter’s role in what he has described as The First Pop Age, as well as the differences between German, UK and US Pop: ‘The extraordinary thing about Richter is that he is able to use a Pop idiom to rethink deeply philosophical problems in painting.’

Does Art Speak English?: The Milan-based novelist Vincenzo Latronico considers the rise of English among non-native speakers in the art world. Are they changing English, or is the language changing their work?

Pound on Poppers: Jan Verwoert listens to Karl Holmqvist‘s own brand of drag performance: the artist’s mixture of poetry and pop. ‘Holmqvist’s montages have something of William Burroughs as the bearded lady, Gertrude Stein in Spandex pants or Ezra Pound on poppers.’

The Memory of Artefacts: Kito Nedo shadows Mariana Castillo Deball as she follows the fate of Mexican artefacts, from the ancient manuscript Codex Borgia to the Coatlicue Statue, discovered in 1790 at Mexico City’s Plaza Mayor.

Also featured in Issue 4: Bert Rebhandl charts the career of the director Romuald Karmakar and asks how his use of YouTube is changing the way filmmakers work and audiences watch film; and Editor Jennifer Allen reconsiders Ulrike Ottinger‘s films in light of a recent exhibition of her paintings from the 1960s.

In our regular columns: Jan Verwoert mourns the end of civil service in Germany; Barbara Preisig questions English’s rise in the Swiss art scene; Kimberley Bradley visits the Esperanto Museum and the Department of Planned Languages at Austria’s National Library; and Fiona McGovern examines the story behind the German electronic music pioneer Ursula Bogner: fake or real?

Plus, Jörg Scheller speaks to Kasper König on the occasion of his last exhibition as director of Museum Ludwig; Jens Kastner traces the Marxist roots in Jacques Rancière’s aesthetic theory. And as part of our regular series ‘In a Word’, the meanings of ‘translation’ are explored by the artist duo Jay Chung and Q Takeki Maeda as well as by the curator and documenta 13 Goethe Institute Fellow Övül Durmuşoğlu.

In ‘Das Ding’, Roman Ondák chooses a single object of special significance from his working environment: The Showcase.

With 19 reviews from 12 cities including: Amy Sillman at Capitain Petzel, Berlin, Andreas Gursky at Gagosian Gallery, New York; Nelly Rudin at Haus Konstruktiv, Zurich and Markus Schinwald at Lentos Kunstmuseum, Linz.
